Autorenporträt
Samuel H. Herbert joined the Royal Naval Reserve as a young man and served for a short time aboard HMS Hood. He started writing his autobiography at the age of 70 in 1978, which took nearly four years to complete. Unfortunately, he passed away shortly after he finished the book and before he saw it published. This is one and only book. David Cunningham is Samuel's grandson. After serving in the RAF for 20 years he moved to Palm Coast, Florida, with his family.
